Emily Jenkins, LCSW

Taking the first step toward therapy can feel intimidating, but you don't have to have everything figured out before you begin. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, supported, and empowered as we work toward the life you want to build.

You may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck in your thoughts, or navigating a life change that feels harder than expected. Anxiety, health concerns, or major transitions can make everyday life feel exhausting and isolating. I work with individuals ages 17+ who want to better understand themselves, build effective coping strategies, and feel more grounded in their lives.

As a medical social worker specializing in transplant and chronic illness, I’ve supported people navigating serious health conditions, uncertainty, grief, and the emotional impact of major medical and life changes. This experience informs my understanding of how anxiety, identity, relationships, and emotional wellbeing shift during periods of disruption.

Therapy can be structured and goal-oriented, or more open and reflective depending on your needs. You don’t need to have everything figured out to begin. If you’re ready to take the next step, I welcome you to reach out.
